Intermedia is the journal of the IIC and is considered to be the world's most established and influential continuously-published forum for telecom and media policy, and the first journal of its kind ever to focus on the possibility of strategic convergence across the media sectors. Although published by the IIC, it is editorially independent and seeks to reflect a wide range of views and perspectives.

It is wide-ranging and focuses on current and emerging international policy and regulatory issues in telecommunications, internet, social networking, broadcasting and related industries. Authorship is worldwide and recent contributions have been drawn from UK, USA, Canada, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Suriname, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, China, Japan and the Middle East, but in every context, it is focussed on the practical and practitioner aspects of policy and regulation in what has become increasingly a highly complex and fragmented climate, challenging experts and specialists everywhere.

It is published five times per year and is available to institutional libraries and via the various individual and corporate membership packages offered by the IIC.

The Editor in Chief of Intermedia is Stephen McClelland. Editorial enquiries are welcomed. Please email s(dot)mcclelland(at)iicom(dot)org
